Officials in Wuhan, where the virus was first reported late last year, on Friday added 1,290 coronavirus deaths to the city's toll. They also added 325 confirmed cases to the city tally.
The total number of cases recorded in the city now stands at 50,333, with 3,869 deaths. Theprevious reported death toll for Wuhan was 2,579 -- so the revised figure marks a 50% increase in the number of deaths in the city from coronavirus.
As of April 17, China's National Health Commission had reported 3,342 deaths nationally, before the revised Wuhan figures were published.
Officials explained that the deaths had initially gone uncounted because in the early stages of the pandemic some people died at home, overwhelmed medics were focused on treating cases rather than reporting deaths and due to a delay in collecting figures from various government and private organizations.
They added that the figures had been revised to show "accountability to history, to the people and the victims," as well as to ensure "open and transparent disclosure of information and data accuracy."
Start adding some zeros to those numbers and I think you'll be a lot closer to the truth.
ReplyDeleteIsn't that special.
ReplyDeleteThese are not just old people. There is still something China is not telling us. I suspect this was around the “third wave” of this disease for China, which was the lethal round. They had two more before it that were equivalent to what we’re experiencing now. Our third wave will come. And be just as lethal. 50% of their city. Think about that people. That’s not just old people with preexisting problems.

ReplyDeleteGood questions. The US Government knows exactly what is and is not happening. People are being murdered all across the world. Governments are using the crimes as a huge power grab dictating to populations what to do and when to do it. They shuttered the economy.
Very powerful events unfolding by extremely evil governments and organizations. Greed and power on full display.
Maybe if some Democrat politicians came down with it , the Govt would
